SMYRNA DEL WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. DECEMBER

inal and part committed for the Origi-
nal would show less thought and less
pure dictiOn than the part committed,
yet no such breaks are found in his
sermons or lectures. He is modest
and backward, yet the largest audience
even of strangers, does not embaress
him. Taken in any way, Pascal
Porter is ma-vel-a puzzle.

Here's a nut for the young people
to crack: A farmer had sixty eggs,
thirty of the largest he placed in one
basket and sold at the rate of two for
a cent, while the remaining thirty he
sold from another basket at the rate of
three for cent. From the first bas-
ketful he realized fifteen cents, and
from the second ten cents, a total of
twenty cents. When he next
went to market, he thought that as
three eggs for a cent and two eggs for
a cent were the same as five eggs for
two cents, he would not bother to sort
his eggs over, but would put the sixty
in one basket, and would sell them at
the rate of five for two cents, as he
assumed he had done on his previous
trip. He did so, but found, when he
came to reckon up his receipts, that he
had only realized twenty-four cents
for them instead of twenty-five cents,
the amount received when he sorted
them over, and sold them two for a
cent and three for a cent. The ques-
ticn that puzzles the farmer and is
puzzling the mathematicians, is what
became of the missing penny?

made few demonstrations against the list,
